Known bugs that need squashing:
- - When in Secure Boot mode, rEFInd can launch just one driver that's
- signed with a shim key or MOK. The second and later drivers

- - When setting a resolution higher than about 800x600 (or maybe even

Hybrid EFI has a bug that causes the allegedly case-insensitive

The code is in need of review to search for memory leaks and
